PhD Positions Available at The University of Houston
The Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Houston is seeking highly motivated candidates for PhD positions in Dr. Yuncheng Du's group. Positions are available immedicably, or applicants may apply to begin in Fall 2026. These positions offer an exciting opportunity to engage in research in biomaterial design and fabrication, including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and conductive polymers, for healthcare applications. Our projects also integrate artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to advance material design, fabrication, and healthcare innovations.
Qualifications
· Our research combines both experimental and computational approaches. Thus, we look for applicants with hands-on experience in wet-lab techniques and programming skills.
· We are interested in candidates with research experience in MOF synthesis, biomaterials characterization, or organic/polymer synthesis. Experience with cell culture, animal studies, biological assays or the design of polymer-based materials for wearable health monitoring devices is highly desirable.
· Applicants from diverse backgrounds, such as chemical engineering, materials science, chemistry, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, and biological engineering, are welcome. A Master's degree (MS) is recommended but not required.
Samples of Research Topics
· Development of MOF-based systems for targeted and controlled drug delivery
· Design and fabrication of flexible polymers for wearable heart-monitoring devices
· AI-enabled synthesis robot for design and optimization of biomaterials
About Us
The University of Houston (UH) is a top public research university located in Houston, Texas. It is currently the third-largest university in Texas, conferring nearly 11,000 degrees each year and contributing to its extensive global alumni network of approximately 310,000 individuals.
